There is an honesty to Dheemi Dheemi Si - Gulaab Gang that separates it from most Hindi songs released around the same time. The music, composed by Soumik Sen, carries the song forward with a confidence that matches the performance.

The voice of Soumik Sen, Kaushiki Chakrborty, Malabika Brahma carries Dheemi Dheemi Si - Gulaab Gang effortlessly, which is the highest compliment a song can give its singer.
